How come you think of dating as a means to the end of mariage or long term commitment? Isn't there value in dating itself? I think there is.
And what's wrong with having three big realtionships? I started at 17 and now I'm 22 and I've dated 3 people (two of which overlapped) in a semi-serious to a serious fashion (I had mini-relationships before then, and I've had some since).

Not once in those three realtionships did I decide that they were the "one" or that I wanted to marry them. In fact, although I liked them all a lot (and fell in love with each for different reasons). The time I spent with them let me discover the things about them that I liked and disliked, and more importantly led me to learn things about myself and what I want in my life.

I don't think that everythting happens for a reason, but I do think you can learn from your life, and that is what I try to do.
